[PATCH 2/2] f2fs: use sbi->wr_mutex for write bios

From: Jaegeuk Kim
Date: Mon Nov 18 2013 - 04:13:12 EST


This patch removes an unnecessary semaphore (i.e., sbi->bio_sem).
There is no reason to use the semaphore when f2fs submits read and write IOs.
Instead, let's use a write mutex and cover the sbi->bio[] by the lock.
